after locentralization of the texture13.db + cache Thumbnail

Hi everyone,

i installed libreelec 9.2.3and i have a mariaDB DB on external server.

After installation of new pi, a lot of movie / actor pictures are broken, i fix that with import of texture13.db and thumbnail folder from my old pi 3.

i would like centralize the texture13.db and cache Thumbnail, for the second i understand that was by advancedsetting.xml and pathsubstitute but for the first just pathsubstitute for this little db seems dangerous to me, do you know if it's the only way or it's possible to use insert this texture db in a real DB like mariaDB ?

Thx by advance

regards,

benjamin

Using pathsubstitution for the thumbnail cache can give mixed results, the Textures13.db location is more or less fixed.

That was my fear

The only other way i thought is a script on the primary pi to copy regulary the texture.db and thumbnail and paste to all other

Copying the textures13.db file to other Kodi clients is a good way to jumpstart a new Kodi client. After that, each Kodi client will update itself.
